One More Mile - Jim Messina

One More Dissapointing Tale

Advantages: A lot of premise
Disadvantages: The novel falls flat of the expected mark

Mitch Albom?s books always sound so enticing and from the moment I read the blurb on the back cover I just know I have to purchase it. The last Albom book I read The Five People You Meet In Heaven was exactly like this but left me feeling a little disappointed after I had read it and unfortunately ?For One More Day? also left me feeling the same. The book?s blurb draws you into a world you think you are going to left and entices you to read a book you think you?ll never want to put down but for me this just wasn?t how my reading of the book left me feeling. The blurb?s short snappy sentences and intriguing plotline premise seem in my opinion to be written much better than the rest of the book actually is and although the story itself isn?t car-crash material it isn?t exactly price-winning either in my opinion. I think that ...

Review of For One More Day - Mitch Albom

Eric Clapton, One More Car, One More Rider

Advantages: This is a live peformance
Disadvantages: It's not a triple album

One More Car, One More Rider by Eric Clapton When this album came out I hadn't made my annual pilgrimage to see Mr Clapton for a few years as he seemed to be taking a break. So I was having withdrawal symptoms of live music at its best and that's what you get from this artist his best at every performance. So it was with great relief that I received this CD for a present for Christmas 2003. . Although in 2004 I saw him at the M.E.N. in Manchester. When putting the CDs on I would make sure you're not interrupted as this is a live CD. Tracks on the first CD Open with a sit down set. 1. Key To The Highway - written by William Broonzy and Charles Seegar - This song kicks the album off and it is one of the best and most covered blues. Most famously by Brownie McGhee & Sonnie Terry. But put this album on and you hear ...

Review of One More Car One More Rider (Live) [ECD] - Eric Clapton

Just One More... heard that before...

Advantages: Vast specrum of influences, consistent quality to the tracks,
Disadvantages: maybe a little too varied for some tastes

This being my second review on the 'Mad Caddies,' I feel that I am becoming quite enamoured with the group. I first heard them when I was in school but they were never my favourite group although they don't have many songs which I do not like. But recently, they have struck a fresh chord with me and their sometimes upbeat, sometimes melancholy, other times devious attitudes and musical misdemeanours have really grown on me. The Mad Caddies are a ska punk collective who have strong jazz, blues, rock, soul and latin influences. This diverse amalgamation of styles fuses into such a versatile sound that their songs can take varying directions - ranging from thrashing rock guitars to indifferent rocksteady basslines - which keep every album feeling varied throughout. 'Just One More' is the band's fourth full album of six releases to date. I ...
